Though the recent warm temperatures might be trying to fool us, fall is technically here, and it’s the traditional time of year for horror. Here are three reads, both old and new, to keep you up at night.

Master of horror Stephen King has written a new novel with his son Owen. In Sleeping Beauties the women of a small Appalachian town are falling asleep and becoming some type of ethereal spirit. How will the men survive? And what is happening anyway? There’s a hint of the titular fairy tale along with the creeping horror.

Some similar plot elements are found in Victor LaValle’s The Changeling. Apollo and Emma have a baby, and Apollo vows to be the dad he never had as the son of a single mother. But suddenly, Emma disappears and something even worse happens to baby Brian, leading Apollo into a world of dark magic and terrifying monsters, right in his own New York neighborhood. LaValle takes the horror novel and elevates it to great literary heights.

For an older read you might have missed, try Junji Ito’s Uzumaki. This gorgeously drawn graphic novel is set in a Japanese town that suddenly becomes overrun with spirals. The spiral pattern leads to madness, shapeshifting and eventually death. Ito is one of the most famous horror comic artists in Japan, and this work will easily show you why.

What if you could no longer do what you loved to do? After Humpty Dumpty’s fall, he is afraid of doing what he once enjoyed -- perilous heights, bird watching from tall trees and climbing into bed at night. Caldecott Medal-winning author and illustrator Dan Santat brings us the story of Humpty Dumpty after his fall. Will he be able to overcome his fear?

This recently discovered story from Margaret Wise Brown was written in the same word pattern as her classic, Goodnight Moon. Little bunny embraces the morning with a "good day" to those he encounters and a subsequent "good night" when his day is done. While not a sequel to Goodnight Moon, it can be seen at an extension of it and is sure to please.

In a mostly wordless picture book, Newberry Medal winner Kate DiCamillo brings us the story of a girl who is searching for what we all want -- someone who understands us. A lonely girl sings “la,” but she hears no response and keeps trying until finally, the moon answers back. This is an inspiring story that is executed beautifully by the illustrator.

No matter whether you’re a child or an adult, it can be difficult being different. Peter and his friends love playing pirates and decide to all dress as pirates for a school costume party. However, Peter’s mother reminds him how much he loves Robinson Crusoe’s adventurous spirit and makes him a Crusoe costume instead. Much to the dismay of his friends, Peter wears the costume his mother made him, and this choice of his gets him teased for being different. The story is based on an incident from the author’s childhood.

A mouse is swallowed by a wolf and just as he thinks all is lost, he makes friends with the duck who is already there. In the belly of the beast, there are candlelight dinners and dancing, which gives the wolf a stomachache. Mouse and duck actually enjoy their new life inside, but it is soon threatened by a hunter who is after the wolf. They must all band together to save themselves and their new home.

For 30 years, children have been trying to find Waldo. An anniversary edition of Where’s Waldo? contains all the fun of the original with new entertaining extras. Anyone who has found Waldo before will want to find him all over again because he's in a new place in every scene. And now readers can also search for his friends Woof, Wenda and Wizard Whitebeard, plus his arch-nemesis Odlaw.

First published in the U.K. as Where’s Wally, when he crossed the pond he also got a new name. And that's not the only moniker the world traveler claims. For example, in Germany he’s known as Walter, in France he’s Charlie, and in Italy readers know him as Ubaldo. Look for Waldo to hit the big screen soon—maybe. A movie has been in development for years, but in 2016 it was reported that Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg were in talks with MGM to finally make the film a reality. Once you’ve found Waldo in the anniversary edition, be sure to look for him in all his books.

Adam needs to let go. Even though his new boyfriend Linus is just about perfect, he can’t seem to stop thinking about his ex, Enzo—and Enzo’s going-away party is that night. Adam’s brother just dropped a bombshell on the family, and Adam’s best friend Angela is moving to the Netherlands. His pastor father still can’t seem understand his son, and his creepy boss can’t keep his hands off Adam. But before he can deal with any of that, Adam needs to pick up the flowers. With nods to two classics—Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway and Judy Blume’s Forever—Release, the new novel from Patrick Ness, is an experience in anticipation.

Laura Hopper’s debut I Never brings Forever forward into the 21st century. Janey never has gone all the way, even though she’s popular, has good friends, is considering top colleges and runs track and is a star on the debate team. However, a devastating announcement from her parents throws her otherwise placid teenage life into a tailspin. When her classmate, dreamy Luke Hallstrom, notices her on a flight they coincidentally share back home after the holidays, Janey’s romantic life is set in motion. Teens will recognize themselves as Janey struggles with her identity as someone’s girlfriend, finding confidence and reveling in her own merits and deciding that age-old question—when to say yes.
